October's Tickler is from C. Sobczak in Williamsville, NY:

We studied the pumpkin noting it's color, shape, size, feel, smell. It was time to cut it open. What would we find inside? Answers ranged from nothing at all to smushy stuff. The knowledgeable said,"seeds." It was the child who was so certain that there was a baby inside that made us open it without further conjecture!
